Note: This project is not yet available on GitHub.

Overview

Codex is a minimalist desktop chat client for interacting with language models. Built with Tkinter for a lightweight footprint, it provides a simple interface for quick AI conversations without the overhead of a full application.

Key Features

• Lightweight UI: Tkinter-based interface with minimal resource usage.
• LangChain Integration: Connects to multiple LLM providers through LangChain.
• Local Storage: Conversation history saved locally.
• Config Management: Simple configuration for API keys and preferences.

Technical Architecture

Codex is a straightforward Tkinter application that wraps LangChain for LLM access. Configuration and history are stored as local files for portability.

Core components:

• Chat Interface: Basic Tkinter window with message display and input.
• LangChain Client: Provider-agnostic LLM communication.
• History Manager: Saves and loads conversation history.
• Config Loader: Reads API keys and settings from local files.

Technology Stack

• UI Framework: Tkinter (Python standard library)
• AI Layer: LangChain
• Storage: Filesystem (JSON/text files)

Current Status

Prototype stage. Basic chat functionality works. Note: API keys currently stored in plaintext—intended for local/personal use only.
